Owing to Mr.. Wilders inability to speak
French he opened with his budget OF panto-
mime stories. He gave his telephone imita-
lions and Sara expressed great delight Then
he gave the story of the man who received
the letter from his absent wife under the i'm
preston that it was a request for more
money but which concluded with the an
nouncement of the serious illness Of her
mother-the dreaded mother-in-law This
story is told without words. The facial
changes OF Mr. Wilder were watched with
interest by the great actress When the
smile began to break over the little mans
dark countenance, like sunshine from behind
q sulien cloud, as he gradually took in the
situation of the mother in-law, Sara laughed
As though she would break her stays. Next
Mr. Wilder gave his limitations of snoring In
q sleeping car. 1t required no knowledge of
English to appreciate this performance Sara
fairly howled with delight Eat is yer fun
nee," she calculated. Then Mr.. Wilder took
from his pocket curiOusly cut bit of paper
and folded it into scores of familiar objects
first bouquet, then hat, then a star, then
a bird and then finally managed to get out OF
it very fair profile of Donna Sol herself
"W hen is door not a door! When it Is
ajar," asked and answered the little enter
tainer. Sara understood this joke having
heard it in Provence some years ago, and she
laughed the joyous laugh of the country
maiden when she recognizes the familiar jest
OF the Merry Andrew Of the circus. BY re-
quest Mr.. Wilder gave pathetic recitation
"Grandpa's Pants VIII Soon Fit Willie" At
the conclusion tear stood in the corner of
each of the tragedienne's expressive eyes. She
shook Mr.. Wilder fervently by the hand and
called him "Ie petit Coquelin"
The inimitable farceur told half dozen
more funny stories. Then the divine Sara
wrote on the back Of one of her finest cabinet
photographs: Souvenir dune charLnante
journee," which she presented her little enter
tainer with many a neat and gracious speech.
Then she pressed both Of Mr.. Wilders hands
warmly, and told him that when he came TO
Paris this summer he must surely call and
see her. Thus the great artists parted.-New

Precisely at 2:10 the ever welcome child Of

artist seized the little artist with empress
ment. Her first exclamation was: "OUel

facile mandibular upon his bosom and smiled
a smile such as limmers impart to the aged
African when news reaches him of the arrival
in town of the first watermeIons of the season
Young Maurice Bernhardt was there in the
capacitY of interpreter and the madame gave
our genial hOmunculus to understand that she
wanted to be particularly gracious because
the Prince of Wales had told her when in
London lot of nice things about hsm and
had asked her to be especially good to him.
Without further ado the great French artistic
and the little American repaired to the AL
